Brooklyn gets New York's biggest battery park from Italy's Enel:

Italy’s Enel has installed New York City’s biggest battery storage system, which it said on Monday will help power the Brooklyn area during periods of peak demand.

[...] NYC is looking to install 3,000 MW of energy storage by 2030 to help build a cleaner and more resilient grid and Enel said the 16.4 Megawatt hour (MWh) battery will help cut emissions by limiting the use of more carbon-intensive power.

Enel, Europe’s biggest utility and one of the world’s biggest renewable energy companies, said it had developed a 4.8-megawatt lithium ion battery system near a shopping center in East New York together with real estate owner Related Companies.

The battery is designed to support the local grid of New York energy company Con Edison when demand hits highs, it said in a joint statement with Related.

Not to be confused with Battery Park in Manhattan!

    Alright, Ethanol_fuckled, we get it: your father was a Jew. But since jewishness is matrilineal, you are not, and so you became an anti-Semite. You're not the first. There is Miller, Horowitz, Badanhof, and many others.

    So who was your father? Was his name Naughtius Maximus? Stationed in the Jerusalem Garrison? Or perhaps my friend from Rome, Biggus Dickus? Time to get over it, Ethanol, it was a joke name, you father probably was a member of the Judean People's Front, or the BDS groups that Trump just banned in his own anti-semitic idiom. Time to get the end of your dick cut off, Ethanol-foxed! Only way for the son of a Jewish father and Shiska mother to become a proper covenanted righteous duke, convert.
